Not Virat Or Rohit, MS Dhoni Picked This Current Indian Player as His Favourite In Team, Know Who Is

MS Dhoni should probably give Jasprit Bumrah his flowers at this point. Dhoni may leave the Indian Premier League (IPL) after the 2024 season to enjoy his time off from competitive cricket. During a Gautam Gambhir-era event for Team India's Sri Lanka tour, former Indian captain Dhoni was questioned about his current favorite national team player.

MS Dhoni Didn't Choose Virat or Rohit

MS Dhoni graciously nominated pace ace Bumrah for the top honor rather than choosing a premier batter from among icons Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Did Dhoni have an easy time selecting Bumrah from the current crop of bowlers? Maybe. If Bumrah isn't there, does that mean Team India doesn't have any world-class bowlers? Not. Dhoni, the former captain of Chennai Super Kings (CSK), explained the same thing during a recent interaction at a promotional event.

Bumrah is MS Dhoni's Favorite Cricketer

Since Bumrah is present, it is simple to select a bowler. We have several good batters, so it's hard to pick a batter, but that doesn't mean bowlers are bad. It's hard to pick a batter because every time I see one, he looks the best, but every time I see another, he also looks great. I don't want to pick a batter as long as Team India is doing well, but I hope they continue to score runs. But I've chosen my favorite bowler,” Dhoni stated.

Best bowler Of This Time

Bumrah is frequently referred to as one of the greatest modern bowlers because he is an expert in his field. Rohit Sharms' Team India won their second ICC T20 World Cup title in the Caribbean thanks to speedster Bumrah. In the same year that Dhoni won the famous trophy for the first time, India, starring Bumrah, defeated South Africa in a thrilling final over match. Bumrah won the Player of the Tournament award at the T20 World Cup for completing one of the best individual campaigns in the ICC event.

When Will Bumrah Make a Comeback In Team

Bumrah took 15 wickets for Rohit Sharma's Team India at an average of 8.26. For the two white-ball matches between India and the host nation, Sri Lanka, the 29-year-old has been rested. Since the T20 World Cup, the Indian speed merchant has not represented the Asian giants.
In the current edition of the ICC World Test Championship (WTC), Bumrah is expected to return.
